<div>MSF is working on this crisis: <a href="http://reliefweb.int/report/guinea/ebola-epidemic-declared-guinea-msf-launches-emergency-response" target="_blank">http://reliefweb.int/report/guinea/ebola-epidemic-declared-guinea-msf-launches-emergency-response</a></div>

<div>Considering our growing partnerships with
them, I would advice to contact them to know
how we could help them the best we can. The
report does not mention which MSF branch is
in the field (FYI, it is the normal way MSF
communicates, there are separate entities
but working on the same goals). I know
people from MSF Spain and MSF France through
CAR Activation, I will ask them.</div>

If there is a way we can provide aid,
then yes! I am not familiar with<br>
either the area or the disease, so not
much help there; but - typically we<br>
might assist the local mapping
community (if there is one) with
remotely<br>
tracing the area from available
imagery. If there isn't a local
community,<br>
HOT can discuss and potentially
provide a remote coordinator - to get
HOT<br>
coordinators on the ground typically
requires a partner organization to<br>
contact us (<a href="mailto:info@hotopenstreetmap.org" target="_blank">info@hotopenstreetmap.org</a>)
for assistance.<br>
<br>
If you are from the area/concerned for
personal interest, I would first ask<br>
if you know the quality of the map
data in the area and if there is any
OSM<br>
community there/how best to reach out;
then we can work out specifics -<br>
really we just need to know our
efforts are actually needed (i.e.
people in<br>
need of aid will receive benefit from
whatever we do).<br>
<br>
Thank you,<br>

Subject: [HOT] Ebola in Conakry,
Guinea<br>
<br>
Hi all,<br>
<br>
Is there a way we can assist on
this one?<br>
The virus has now reached Conakry.
As far as I recall it's the first<br>
time the disease finds its way to
such a populated area...<br>
